Why Choose 1CUTFAB for Waterjet Cutting?
1CUTFAB delivers precision waterjet-cut parts at competitive prices, with turnarounds built for real projects and real deadlines. Whether you're a hobbyist prototyping a single part or a business running a production order, here's what you can expect:
Precision Cuts with Tight Tolerances
Our OMAX GlobalMax 2040 waterjet achieves cutting tolerances of ±0.003" to ±0.005" depending on material and thickness, suitable for precision brackets, gaskets, structural components, and intricate artistic cuts. Parts come out dimensionally accurate with no post-cut distortion, warping, or heat-affected zones, reducing your finishing time and rework costs.
Clean, Smooth Edges : No Secondary Finishing Needed
Waterjet cutting uses high-pressure water mixed with abrasive garnet sand, channeled through a precision nozzle, to produce clean, smooth edges that often require no secondary finishing. Unlike plasma or laser cutting, there are no burn marks, slag, or micro-cracks on the cut edge. For most metals and composites, parts are ready for use, assembly, or coating immediately after cutting.
What Materials Can Waterjet Cut?
Waterjet is one of the most versatile cutting methods available, handling a wider range of materials and thicknesses than laser or plasma. At 1CUTFAB we commonly cut : Steel, Aluminum, Copper & Brass, Titanium, Stone & Tile, Rubber & Foam, Plastics and Composites etc.
Waterjet vs. Laser vs. Plasma Cutting
Water Jet cutting boasts several advantages over other methods, such as plasma or laser cutting. It generates smooth edges, eliminating the need for additional work. Unlike its alternatives, waterjet cutting doesn't lead to burn marks, cracks, or work-hardening of materials. Plus, with waterjet cutting, thick materials can be cut no problem with greater precision.
Smart Nesting : Less Waste, Lower Cost for You
We use advanced nesting software to arrange your parts as efficiently as possible on every sheet. By maximizing material utilization, we minimize scrap, which directly lowers your per-part cost. This is especially valuable for production orders where raw material costs are a significant factor.
Our Equipment : OMAX GlobalMax 2040 Waterjet
Our OMAX GlobalMax 2040 is a commercial-grade, high-precision waterjet capable of cutting a full 6'8" x 13'3" sheet in a single setup. It handles materials from thin sheet stock all the way up to 6" plate. The machine's precision motion control and real-time kerf compensation deliver consistent accuracy on every job, from one-off prototypes to repeat production runs.
